Excellent! About the only support calls I get from non english
speakers is for kernel updates, where a screenful of english text
tells about the need to reboot. I have tried to convince them to just
press OK, but I need to go there and do the update myself. It is
actually wise to not press OK if user has no idea what this OK is
about, so getting the update messages translated is a big improvment.
Cheers for this patch and commit it soon.
